I don't have the stats, but I'm curious why you only want to know how many Christians died. Does it matter if the innocent people who died were Christians or not?

apparently, none, and nobody is sure exactly how many Muslim Lebanese died, either. The government says one thing, the actual people say another, and the Hezbollah seem to have added both numbers and come up with that number. However, if there were actually any Christians in those villages and towns when Hezbollah arrived, they were long dead before any Israeli bombs fell.

We'll probably never know, and it doesn't really matter. A war crime is a war crime, whether it's one or ten thousand civilians who are murdered without any justification.
What we do know is that Shrub and his cronies in Washington encouraged the incompetent Israeli terrorists to attack Hezbollah, who are sunni muslimss, in hopes that it would cause the shiites and christians to unite against them.
Israeli terrorism has unified them all right: the shiite and the christians are now fully supportive of Hezbollah.

romulanbee,
I don't know, sorry. But I bet ther were some. It's just that this is only the beginning. Those that are there expecting everything to go on as it has are very foolish to do so.
The war is not going to end there. It will get worse. Christians better read their Bible very closely, if that's really what they are. They are in a very bad place! It's the worst polace in the world to be, a Christian should either know better, or just be stubbornly holding on to an issue of faith.

We don't really know since the western media is far more concerned with reporting on Israeli deaths and injuries than anyone else.
What we do know is that Israel attacked her neighbour and engaged in a campaign of wanton destruction and murder.
Which is called "terrorism" by people who do not allow Zionist propaganda to influence their opinions.
Israel & the US are the two most violent terrorist organizations currently in existence.

Not as many as you might think because Hezbollah did not make a habit of hiding and being sheltered in the Christian communities.

The villages in south lebanon in which the massacres happened were mainly christian ones, like Qana for example. I would say nearly half of those dead, meaning about 400-500.
